Six masters of the art of musical composition, six symphonies, one of the world’s top orchestras and a star conductor – these are the main ingredients of “Kent Nagano conducts Classical Masterpieces”. This lavish production embarks on a new territory – and not just in terms of concert recordings. It also offers a modern visual perspective on the world of classical music, with glimpses behind the scenes, animated sequences, rapid cuts and time lapse footage.
THE SYMPHONIES
• Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - Symphony No. 41 'Jupiter' (1788)
• Ludwig van Beethoven - Symphony No. 3 'Eroica' (1803 / 04)
• Robert Schumann Symphony No. 3 'Rhenish' (1850)
• Johannes Brahms: Symphony No. 4 (1884 / 85)
• Anton Bruckner: Symphony No. 8 (2nd version, 1890)
• Richard Strauss: An Alpine Symphony (1915)
SIX CONCERTS & DOCUMENTARIES
At the heart of each film is a technically and visually sophisticated concert recording. All footage was shot in the Philharmonic Hall in Berlin. A new view of the orchestra is achieved through extreme close-up shots of the musicians, remote-controlled cameras on the platform, crane and dolly shots and unconventional montage sequences. In interview sequences Kent Nagano explains what he finds particularly important about each specific work and its interpretation. The maestro also provides the viewer with interesting supplementary information on the genesis and context of the work.
Another integral part of each programme is the footage of rehearsals. This shows that the musicians are ordinary people who are dedicated to their vocation. In interviews the players talk about their work, their music and their orchestra. Finally, the animated sequences take the viewer on a fascinating journey into the world of each composer. The scenes portray events and encounters in their lives that had an important bearing on them personally and on their works. Another special feature is the fact that all the dialogues are based on original quotations from the composers and their contemporaries.
BONUS DVD: KENT NAGANO – SEEKING NEW SHORES
Introducing one of the world’s most successful conductors - Kent Nagano’s meteoric rise to fame took him via Lyon, Manchester and Los Angeles to Berlin, where he directed the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester for six years. In autumn 2006 Nagano took up two new posts: as chief conductor of the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal and General Music Director of the Bayerische Staatsoper. The film shows Kent Nagano in rehearsal with the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin and the Bayerisches Staatsorchester and follows him to California, Paris and Munich. Interviews with Plácido Domingo, Gérard Mortier, Lang Lang, Achim Freyer and others provide a fascinating insight into this outstanding conductor’s personality and the various stages in his career. Sechs Meisterkomponisten, sechs Symphonien, ein Spitzenorchester und sein Stardirigent - das sind die Hauptbestandteile von „Kent Nagano dirigiert Monumente der Klassik“. Die aufwendige Produktion geht bei der Präsentation klassischer Musik neue Wege. Ungewöhnliche Perspektiven, der Blick hinter die Kulissen, Animationen, schnelle Schnitte und Zeitraffer sind einige der Gestaltungselemente im Sinne einer zeitgemäßen Optik und Umsetzung. Kernstück jeder Folge ist der technisch und visuell anspruchsvoll produzierte Konzertmitschnitt. Gedreht wurde ausschließlich in der Berliner Philharmonie. Extreme Nahaufnahmen von den Musikern, ferngesteuerte Kameras auf der Bühne, Kran- und Dolly-Fahrten und die unkonventionelle Montage sorgen für einen neuen Blick auf das Orchester und den Dirigenten.
